<p><em>Automatically check for updates to:</em><br/>
By default &brandShortName; automatically checks for updates to itself as
well as to extensions and themes so you'll always know you have the most
up-to-date version. You can turn off this behavior by unchecking the
appropriate checkbox here. You can also manually check for updates to
either &brandShortName; or your installed extensions and themes by
clicking the corresponding <em>Check Now...</em> button.</p>

By default, &brandShortName; will periodically check and notify you when a

<dd>When this &pref.singular; is selected, &brandShortName; updates will
be automatically downloaded and will be installed the next time
&brandShortName; is restarted. The <em>Warn me if this will disable
extensions or themes</em> &pref.singular; determines whether you will be
warned before the installation of an update which would require an
incompatible extension or theme to be disabled because no newer,
compatible version exists. The warning will allow you to postpone
installation of the update, though at the expense of improvements
included in it.</dd>
<dd>If all extensions and themes are compatible or can be updated to
be compatible, the &brandShortName; update will be installed. Upon
restart you will be asked to install any needed extension and
theme updates so that you can continue to use them.</dd>
